Design Notes
The codon optimization and domestication was done to improve recombinant expression in E. coli and enable restriction enzyme-based swapping of promoters and terminators, respectively.

This gene homolog that encodes for CHR was chosen rationally after thorough literature review. CHR is an enzyme involved in the biosynthetic pathway of daidzein, converting p-coumaroyl-CoA into isoliquiritigenin with the help of Chalcone Synthase. It is the enzyme that determines whether the pathway proceeds toward genistein or daidzein as a product. The gene sequence was sourced from NCBI GenBank [1], and produced by Twist Bioscience.
